Synopsis: HOUSE BOUND is the story of a girl breaking free from a patriarchal family and a spiritually abusive movement. A talented singer, Abigail’s dreams of going professional are dashed when her father decides not to allow her any independence from the family until she is married. Now, Abigail must choose: her family or her dreams.

Character Breakdowns:

ABIGAIL ELLIS (LEAD) – 17 years old in script, Caucasian or fair skinned Latina, average to slightly overweight, between 5’1 and 5’5. Red or darker hair preferred but won’t rule out blond. Abigail is an incredibly talented country gospel singer with dreams of joining a professional choir. She is stuck, however, in a patriarchal family and is not allowed to do anything independently. She must obey her father until she is married and then she must obey her husband… or be excommunicated and shunned. She’s Christian, but becomes very skeptical of the dogma surrounding her family’s chosen denomination.

ETHAN ELLIS (LEAD) – 40 – 45 years old, clean appearance, Caucasian or fair skinned Latino, slender to athletic build, between 5’10 and 6’4. Red or darker hair preferred but won’t rule out blond. Ethan is Abigail’s father, a failed patriarch who has a hard time keeping his family of 5 kids and his wife afloat. He works as a writer of Christian homeschool training materials, but can’t seem to catch a break. He truly loves his family, but disguises his guilt of being weak as a patriarch by being too overbearing – even for a fundamentalist movement. Ethan holds onto Abigail tightly as his only hope for getting the family out of its slump and is ashamed of himself for that.
